Is there actually any change Dynasty Warriors wants exept more different outfits (and tighter ones for the ladies), more weapons, more scenarios, more Musou Modes and more levels to grind. Ok and maybe a little less graphic bugs.
There are always changes since DW 5 they are small for a neutral party but for me as a fanboy changes like swimming/climbing/or performing new moves are an huge step.
Look at DW 7 vids and Strikeforce then look at DW5 Empires. Graphical changes like that for an KOEI game are like a human flying to the moon just unbelievable

And if there is talks like: There isn`t really much variation" blabla please look at Halo, Call of Duty, Medal of Honor and any 3rd person shooter Thats all the same bullshit with no variation.
